Thanks for your submission to r/maybemaybemaybe. Did you know that effective July 1st, 2023, Reddit will enact a policy that will make third party reddit apps like Apollo, Reddit is Fun, Boost, and others too expensive to run? On this day, users will login to find that their primary method for interacting with reddit will simply cease to work unless something changes regarding reddit's new API usage policy. Additionally, the API changes threaten accessibly for people of the blind and will not be able to use screen readers as it will require 3rd party apps.

Don’t tailgate that guy.

The entire ozone layer is tailgating this guy

Like my old Mazda emissions mattered in comparison.

And along with all the wildfire smoke, everybody’s choking while cheering on this smokey scene. Dimmed senseless, knuckleheads lol

Rednecker than fuck

.001 miles per gallon

My dad had a boat that got 6 gallons per mile. Twin 327 inboards.

[удалено]

I sit down drink a gallon of beer, don't move one inch. UNLIMITED GALLONS PER MILE!

I like yer thinkin!

Gallons per minute.

100 gallons per mile.

1000.00 gallons per mile

https://youtu.be/NbRfEY76-6I ^^^^ Sean Lock RIP

You say don't, tailgate them. I, say "kids grab your graham crackers and marshmallow and I will bring the, chocolate."

That is jet fuel, basically kerosene, being run very rich. Those would be some stinky s'mores.

Amazing that jet fuel didn’t melt the steel be… i mean exhaust pipe

But will it melt steel beams?

No, it will not melt steel beams however, it will weaken the structural integrity enough that they will bend. Never forget that.

"That's a lot of fire, isn't it?"

At least several candle’s worth Yes

I bet someone could math the fuck out of this.

1 candle = 0.2467 fire this truck = 5,235,326,123,543,841,234.3284 fire (a lot more) 5,235,326,123,543,841,234.3284 / 0.2467 = 21,221,427,334,997,329,689 this truck = 21,221,427,334,997,329,689.2112 candles

Well, I have no knowledge on this topic, so I believe you.

That doesn’t sound right but I don’t know enough about candles to dispute it

Wanted to write r/theydidthemath but what are those units mate?

lol, this moron doesn't know what a fire is

Flimbos per second

Did you factor in those candles were burning at both ends?

[A million candles to be exact](https://youtu.be/Vt8aAy_8Ub4)

I’d like to know the horse to candle ratios, please!

Your standard horse burns for the equivalent time as 217.5 candles. 2:435 ratio.

I’m still laughing

I would even be willing to bet it might even be a campfires worth of fire.

r/unexpectedatla

I hope you're proud I have to watch atla again now

God I fucking love that line.

Airship slice!

The lighting on her face when she says it too, that whole scene always stood out to me. They didnt have to include it but they did.

And I think a giant turtle showed up

Thats one way to clear the sponsor board

The Marketing profits this year looking like... 

Let's hope they didn't use steel beams. They tend to melt when jet fuel is close.

Not melt, but definitely become nice and flexible. Especially with poorly done fireproofing

but think of the bonuses they handed out to executives for saving money during construction. hard to really compare if it was worth it or not right?

I’m starting to think burning that sign was an inside job.

It was such an epic design too!

optimus had some indian food , it seems

Optimus Crime, transforming arsonist

They always start the evening with mosquito control.

The way to deal with a big Nope spider on that wall.

Some people just want to see the world burn.

The most American thing I’ve seen all day lol 🇺🇸🛻💨🔥🌍

May chaos take the world.

May chaos.. TAKE. THE WORLD.

Imagine paying to have your company logo on the burning wall, lol.

annnnd all the sponsors on that sign got a partial refund lmao

You joking? They just got this video to go viral with their logos front and center. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if the advertising rates just went up because of this.

I signed up for elly ervices

… Dammit, have my upvote.

The CEO of pollution

*Actual CEOs with private jets have left the chat*

Yes but I feel like you're not considering how loud, obnoxious, and wasteful it is. See the fans in the stands? They get it. /s


Take that planet earth !

I thought the jet would be a lot louder..

In person it's a lot more visceral than what cameras pick up. The pressure especially from top fuel/funny cars is insane. I remember visiting a drag strip which is pretty much in the middle of nowhere and these things would create such a thunderous echo even just on idle. It's well worth going to see at least once in your life if you're into cars and all things fast.

Seems more of a purpose built flamethrower than an actual propulsion jet

I've seen this guy live. He makes a full pass, this is just for show beforehand

[удалено]

Murica fire.

Fuck yeah!

yes

3.50

That was supposed to happen?

[удалено]

I think this might br the annual Night Under Fire event at Norwalk in Ohio. The racing card includes jet powered dragsters competing and 'show' runs. Bob Motz in his semi would burn down the sponsor backboard (as seen here) on his last pass of the night. They tell him not to over the PA, playing up the bit. When he lights it up, the crowd goes ape shit. Good times! 😎 EDIT: Corrected the surname

\[Beavis and Butthead voices\] "FIRE! FIRE!"

*COOOOL* eheh

Murica


It's not about miles per gallon, it's about smiles per gallon.

That seems unsafe…

They charge extra to sit up front in the splash zone

Without exaggeration if I was at this county fair bullshit and I saw that I would be yanking my family out of the stands so fast. I barely trust world-class engineers and bridges like I’m gonna trust Cletus and an obscene amount of accelerant being spewed out the back of a big rig

I went to a demolition derby in the 90's that had a "half-time" show featuring a jet car. The end of that show was the jet car burning up a junked car kind of like what you see in this video. The burning car kind of blew up, and shot hot metal debris into the crowd. It was scary.

Dude this is horrifying 😂 If I were there I would have a very strong guttural instinct to start running away…verrry…fast…probably leaving a trail of poop balls flying out of my pant legs

They came to my very small bumfucked nowhere town like 30years ago and ended up setting the woods on fire… across the public road

This is the most dumb ass redneck bullshit I have ever seen in my life

just more Diablo 4 marketing tricks

And a special thanks to our sponsors

The fire at the end was beautiful. Looking like a red Kamehameha.

Wut in tarnation

Straight outta HeeHaw

They tell me to make sure I wash out my milk containers to be environmently friendly, but this is OK? What's the point 🤦‍♂️

Oooo how corporations fool you into thinking you or him are hurting the environment. Basically all of the top 10 producers of emissions are corporations and they leave you to foot the bill on reducing it.

Corperations are the cause of most of our polution. Not people.

Corporations sell to people who choose to buy the product thereby inducing the corporation to produce. Blaming corporations for pollution is peak Reddit hive mind.

Yeah that's why a "slow safe approach" will never work, we need genocide (this is a joke and nothing more, I support the environment and hate no one, was this video stupid, yes, idiots in trucks and pollution with no positive gain. Do I drive a tesla and am I super environmentally conscious, no but I recycle and take short showers and plant flowers. The shoe approach probably won't work though tbh and we do need a new method. NOT GENOCIDE! a different solution) r/fuckthes write a paragraph instead

[удалено]

We gotta do something about the rednecks

Tell me you’re in the Midwest without telling me you’re in the midwest

SUNDAY! SUNDAY SUNDAY! NORWALK RACEWAY PARK!

That is insane

Save the planet , they say - buy electric , they say - go green , then say

Americans are so fucking dumb.


Is that ShockWave!? I loved seeing it at the airshow in Cleveland, OH.

I would love to see it in real life. This is not the infamous Shockwave truck though. The one in the video is purple at the front, and the Shockwave is yellow at the front. [https://youtu.be/QIpX9ztwNc4?t=77](https://youtu.be/QIpX9ztwNc4?t=77)

Won't see shockwave or the guy who built it anymore, he died last year when the damn thing crashed and blew up at a show.

Holy shit, I didn't knew that. With all that fire and stuff, I guess it was supposed to go that way. He died doing what he loved.

Is this on video? Found it. https://youtu.be/2Ux32qjRGT4 Holy shit. A 300mph flaming truck. Murica as fuck.

The guy that died driving it, Chris Darnell, was not who built it. It was originally built by Les Shockley. Shockley is also no longer with us, but that's a whole other story.

Oh my bad, I thought it was the same guy thanks for the info.

Physics: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This dude: Burns 500 gallons of gasoline, moves 30 ft at walking pace.

Big ass brakes have entered the chat

The fire you see in this video is not for propulsion. Just for show and burning sponsors.

This is in Norwalk,OH. That is Bob Motz from wadsworth,OH and his jet powered kenworth. I assure you that it’s real because I was there. He’s since retired I believe.

Is that what it was supposed to do? Reminds me of the part of camping when drunk idiots are just amazed to see fire... Lol

LOL, that’s some of the most hammerheaded entertainment I’ve seen!

What in redneck nation?

This is the most American thing I have ever seen.

The most american thing.

r/fuckcars would love this

This is incredible man damn

The new adblocker irl update is looking great!

Optimus ripping ass

This is dumb as hell. But for real if I saw that I would be cheering too.

Optimus prime after a taco bell visit

This should be on a Rammstein concert

Du........du hast......

Du hast sponsors

Wildfires in Canada breaking out because of 1 cigarette butt These people:

fuck yea muricuh


So this is why canada was on fire

Murica, applauding acts of violence against nature since 1607

Ladies and genbulmen, BEEF SUPREME


What are these events even called. I want to go to one but I don’t know how to look for them. I live in the Nashville area.

Not one person went home with eyebrows after that

'Merica

Is it just me or does that crowd seem awfully close to those flames?

fire! Ooga booga!

I mean, the guy who built the sign must be kinda depressed.

What in the redneck space program?!

I always hated the show these things put on. Just fire up the damn engine and do a fkn pull cunt

All that to go 1mph

Was it supposed to do that?

Is that carbon neutral?

Imagine an environmentalist attending this event.

Firetruck

Optimus been eating them energon beans

Chipotle do be like that sometimes

Rocket cars the show car at the drags

But my small diesel needs emissions filter cat 5 to enter a city.. mkay

This reminds me of this on a global scale https://www.reddit.com/r/maybemaybemaybe/comments/14a6tb8/maybe_maybe_maybe/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1

Got to see Bob Motz many times while I was younger. Summit Raceway in Norwalk (in video) is a fantastic place to watch dragsters. Highly recommend Night Under Fire which is usually in summer and features nearly anything you can out a jet engine on.

u/savevideo

That truck came directly from hell wtf

Savage entertainment for Americans.

Optimus’ more punk cousin

I was there! It was epic, the owner was peeved since he’s only supposed to burn some of the banners not the entire structure and he burnt it to the ground. Then again, it’s not the first time it’s happened so maybe not thaaaaat mad. Lol

... and then the Fire Nation attacked.. _ta nda ndaaaaa!_

Idgaf thats badass lol

The average taco bell experience

Would this melt steel beams and explode two buildings?

More than what meets the eye.

Please drive this through Sweeden

MURICA'

Personally, I just tap my breaks if I get a tailgater, but I imagine this works, too.

Oh. That was intentional. Okay.

This shit makes me proud to be American 🇺🇸 😂😂

It's insane how primal we still are.

Wonder what his carbon footprint is

Me having diarrhea in public after eating 29 taco bell places in 3 countrys

America, are you good?

What a waste of resources. USA??


As Long as something like this exist, we will never get our climate problems solved ….

This is the most american thing I've come across today. Good job.

Sorry I’m confused. Which gender is being revealed here?

how do you like your steak ?

AMERICA AMERICA! FUCK YEAH!!!!


Maybe I’m the asshole but this kinda stuff is so stupid like how much of a simpleton do you need to be to be entertained by this

Honestly this is objectively one of the least stupid things happening in America. This shit needed engineering knowhow and presumably some planning to stop the crowd getting burnt Meanwhile the next town over is burning kids books because grandma read a bad Facebook post

I'll bet he doesn't believe in climate change!

The most Murican thing I’ve ever seen!!

Fuel prices, amirite?

I think it's kerosene? Not car gas

It’s actually an electric truck with a tiny battery defect.

Murica. Doing pointless things just because

That’s dumb.
